NEWS CENTRAL CANTERBURY NEWS, JULY 15, 2015 Jack Goodhue focused on ITM Cup By HANNE DAVIS Fresh from lifting the Under-20 Rugby World Cup trophy in Italy, Lincoln University’s Jack Goodhue is now fully focused on becoming a regular feature in Canterbury’s national provincial championships starting lineup. This year Goodhue has pulled on an All Blacks sevens jersey as well as representing the Baby Blacks. He will return to Christchurch and look to re-establish himself in Scott Robertson’s Canterbury squad which gave him vital exposure last winter. ‘‘It’s been a full on year, but a good year. I was really happy to play in the Wellington and Las Vegas sevens and to do that was definitely a huge highlight.’’ The Northland product did not expect to play at NPC level last year and said, ‘‘to do that was awesome’’ and to get a full season ‘‘under my belt was big, as well’’. Robertson was also at the helm of the victorious under-20s, so Goodhue has been able to get vital face time with the man who might hold the keys to his career in XVman rugby. ‘‘The players are still there to be able to win the premiership, so I’ll just be hoping to get a starting position. That will be my goal for this year and just go all the way. ‘‘We’ve got some key players who’ll be leaving afterwards so hopefully we can fire them off with a win.’’ Ambitions to play Super Rugby are there, but the focus for the immediate future is doing well on the field and being the best player he can be. ‘‘That means playing your best footy, and if that leads to Super Rugby that’s great but for me. ITM Cup is no walk in the park for sure. ‘‘It’s very tough rugby. I don’t know what Super Rugby is like, but ITM Cup is still very high quality rugby and you want to be playing your best, otherwise you can lose form quickly and be shown up out there.’’ This year Jack is joined at Lin- coln University by his twin brother, and under-20 team mate Josh, who he said ‘‘wasn’t bad company’’ while in Italy. Jack Goodhue has been busy, winning the Under-20 World Cup, playing for the All Black sevens and representing Canterbury in the ITM Cup. Picture: GETTY IMAGES Josh, who’s found in the forwards pack, will also have ambitions to make the ITM squad, but there’s no guarantee that he’ll mirror Josh’s success in the regional competition. Reflecting on his time in the Sevens squad, the 20-year-old believes working with Gordon Tietjens taught him how hard he could push himself in any format of the game. ‘‘It’s a step up, playing at that level, so dealing with pressure. Also [Tietjens] has got some great drills and stuff where we work a lot with scenarios and do live stuff. ‘‘It might be a seven versus four scenario and try to manipulate the field, so you’ve got drills that do relate to the XVs game as well.’’ After two sevens tournaments, an opportunity with the Under- ❝ 20s was a ‘‘once in a lifetime’’ offer Goodhue wasn’t prepared to turn down as the Sevens team rumbled through the rest of their 2015 campaign. He might look at rejoining the Sevens squad at some point but is taking a ‘‘see what happens’’ approach, particularly with the Sevens team potentially gaining some high profile recruits for the Rio Olympics. ‘‘Me only being a fringe player for them, you know, I have to NZ Pine Pine 1.3m x 80cm Table + 4 Chairs Stockman 3 Drawer Bedside NZ Pine Stockman 6 Drawer Deep Chest NZ Pine 1.8m x 95cm Cubed Display Cabinet NZ Pine Stockman 2 Door Hutch Dresser S 3D NZ Pine only $343 M Corner TV Unit The players are still there to be able to win the premiership, so I’ll just be hoping to get a starting position. That will bemygoal for this year and just go all the way. – Jack Goodhue think about it logically but definitely to have the opportunity to play in the Olympics would be something worth discussing.’’ Another huge moment for Goodhue was having the opportunity to wear the Under-20 captain’s armband against Argentina, and one that he felt prepared to take on. ‘‘It was a bit of an honour to say the least. It was a shame it was a bit of a tight game and probably not one of our best performances OUR BIGGEST SALE THIS YEAR 20% - 50% OFF RRP but I’m glad we got away with the win still. To lead them out is definitely something I’ll remember for the rest of my life.’’ So as the reality of a cold Christchurch training pitch sets in, for the moment, Goodhue can enjoy the fact that he’s a world beater. ‘‘It’s pretty good, there’s not much more to say , . . you know it’s quite hard to comprehend that we’re the best in the world. It’s a special feeling.’’ 4 DAYS ONLY OPEN 10AM - 4PM SATURDAY AND SUNDAY 5 Macrocarpa 1m x 50cm Coffee Table & Drawer 1.8m x 1m T NZ Pine 1.8m x 1m Fixed Shelf Bookcase NZ Pine Stockman Desk 1.53m Long 6784087AC - In Macrocarpa, Pine, Oak & NZ Oregon Recycled Rimu Pi 1 5 H llT bl ithSh lf NZ Pine Emerald 3 Drawer Bedside NZ Pine Emerald 6 Drawer Chest Phone: 308-0417 | 103 South St, Ashburton Mon - Fri 8am–5pm • Sat & Sun 10am-4pm • www.macrocraftfurniture.co.nz % Off Now $1,836 33% % Off Now $644 40% Now $388 33% % Off Now $218 40% 30% % Off 50% 40% % Off Off Now $475 40% 40% Off Off Now $509 Off Off Now $622 Off Off Off Off 30% Off Now $370
